Stars In Selling - Number 5

This film serves as an instructional guide for sales professionals, emphasizing that the core principles of successful selling are universal across all industries, from retail counters to corporate offices. Through a series of practical illustrations and expert testimonials, the program highlights the importance of "standing alongside" the buyer—both figuratively and literally—to build rapport and trust. Key lessons include the necessity of thorough product knowledge to gain respect, the importance of preparation and setting clear goals, the power of contagious enthusiasm, and the value of persistent, directed effort when facing resistance. Ultimately, the film elevates selling to a noble profession akin to education and medicine, arguing that the true purpose of the modern salesperson is not merely to fulfill needs, but to "create wants" that improve the standard of living and foster a richer, more productive life for all. Features Brownie Wise, who made Tupperware a household name.
